THE SEAL FISHERIES.
Capt. Shepard Reports Regarding
Recent Seizures.

WASHINGTON, July 27.-Regarding
the Alaskan fisheries, Capt. Shepard
says, in a report just received, that
Special Treaty Agent Tingle, in charge
of the seal islands of Alaska, has ex-
pressed his opinion of the law to be
''that vessels manned, armed and fitted
and provided with the implements for
taking seal and salt for curing the same,
found in the waters of the territory of
Alaska, or that part OF the Behring
were liable to seizure though not
found in the act of taking seal and with
out other evidence that they had taken
seal in The waters named" Though
the evidence of the intention of violat-
ing the law in regard to the taking of
seal when opportunity offered" says
Capt, Shepard, lis unquestionable, / do
not feel warranted in SeiZing vessels or
making arrests till l have unimpeach-
able evidence that the law has been vio-
lated" He asks the department for
specific instructions on this subject for
guidance in similar cases in the future.
On the 30th of June the Rush
seized the schooner Challenge, of
Albert Douglass, managing owner, for
violation of section 1861, Revised Stat
utes. she having skins of female fur
seal and skins of unborn seal on board.
The latter the master admitted were
taken from a female seal killed by his
crew. The Challenge, which was an
chored at Akoulan island, Alaska, when
seized, was taken to Ounalaska and the
skins. numbering 151, were delivered to
the United States marshal there. Her
arms and ammunition were taken on
board the Rush. Her crew, numbering
ten men, were shipped from Port Town
send. w. T., on the I'd of July. Capt.
Shepard, while in latitude 81 deg 50
min and longitude l6 deg 27 min west,
near Cape Cheerful, boarded the Brit
ish steamer Anna Beck, of Victoria, B.
c., Louis Jesen, master. He found on
board about 334 sealskinS, of which the
captain admitted that nineteen were
taken in the Behring sea. Her boats
had recently been taken out of the
water and considerable fresh seal blood
was found on the deck, indi-
eating that seal had been skinned
and dressed on board that day.
The vessel was seized and taken to
Ounalaska, wher the vessel and outfit
were delivered to the United Slated
crews of the seized vessels were placed
on board the Challenge in charge of an
officer of the Rush and taken to Sitka,
Alaska, for trial before the United
States district court at that city. Assis-
tant Secretary Maynard has telegraphed
Capt. Shepard that the department ap-
proves his action with reference to the
KATE AND ANNE,
and also his statement that he does not
feel warranted in seiZing vessels until
he has unimpeachable evidence that the
law has been viola ted.

ger afterward discovered was Sergt. Thomas
BARLEY, who was the prosecuting witness al

whose testimony convicted me. Every word

fact that BARLEY saws hail from Cincinnati
and that my father is music teacher and
that his name is De Requels, shows that at
least it is a case OF mistaken Identity even if
my imprisonment was not the outcome Of
Bartley's malice. But why should he bear
me any malice: never saw him before that
night we met at Delmonicos. Bartley's state
ment that admitted my name to be De Re-

CHICAGO, July Eff all the rumors
and pointers and hints that have come
tumbling in upon the sheriff and his
deputies and detectives, and still con-
tinue to come, touching the possible
were to be hunted down it is safe to say
that the remaining months of the sum-
mer would be well occupied. The eX-
warden has clearly Outwitted all his
pursuers. Sheriff MatsOn begins to take
rather deSpairing view of the situation,
and so do most of the people about his Of
fee, although none of them are willing to
admit that they have abandoned all hope
of tracing the fugitive. Of all the theO
rieS as to the manner of his flight the
two that appear to be most prevalent
are that he escaped by the lake to some
sheltering haven, Or that he is safe in
the house of some friend in the city. In
the hope that the latter may prove cor
rect in the long run a good many pri-
vate houses are being strictly watched
by detectives. 1t is the generally re,
ceived opinion that McGarigle managed
to get into tug ON the lake Saturday
night, and went across the lake either
to Grand Haven or ST. Joseph and from
there took train which would carry
him straight to Mackinac. The journey
would occupy in all from tWenty-four to
thirty-six hours.
The trail taxed by McGarigle, the
boodler, is believed by the authorities
to have been discovered.
THE FACTS WORKED OUT
up to this evening by the detectives and
Sheriff Matson indicate that Drs. st.
John and Dell aided in the escape.
Both doctors are connected with the
College of Physicians and Surgeons,
an institution located directly across the
street from the county hospital, of
which McGarigle was warden while
acting as treasurer of the boOdlerS'
pool DIR. st. John is part owner of the
schooner Edward Il. Blake, which sud-
denly discharged a cargo Saturday, and
after the doctor had an inter
view with the captain cleared
Immediately, the ostensible desti-
nation being Kingston, Ont. Dur
ing Saturday afternoon DR.. st. John
was closeted at the Jail with McGarigle
for several hours. It5sMas that night
the missing boedler escaped from the
sheriff, running. it is believed, the two
blocks from his house to the lake shore,
where a life boat from the
schooner was waiting. DIR. St.
John, with DR.. Dell, was absent
from home Saturday night, and they
have since steadfastly refused to ex-
plain where they were. The sheriff has
the yacht Moffat, following in the wake
of the Blake, but there is a question
whether the pursuers have right to
board the schooner. 1t is stated that
McGarigle has with him four trusty
Stalwart friends, and if overtaken, will
not surrender without fight, which
may result in loss OF life.

his cattle had been getting into his

that Horizons cattle had been III his

thing about it. The conversation waXed
warm, and Horton called Dean thief
and Dean called Horton a liar. Dean
had a hammer in his hand which he
swung up and down in his gesticula-
ton with some emphasis, and Horton,

The Work of Ira in Wreckers.

CHICAGO, July 26.-An accident oc-
CURED to the Chicago & Atlanta express
on the Baltimore & Ohio road at York,
Ind, which resulted in the death of the
engineer and fireman of the passenger
train and the injury of the freight engi-
neer. The train left here at o'clock
last night and at York, owing to mis-
placed switch, ran onto siding and
into freight train which was standing
there. Engineer c. G. Cramer and Fire
man Edward Kooken, of the passenger
train, were both killed, and W. K. De-
vine. the engineer of the freight, was
badly injured, but it is thought will re-
cover. No one else was hurt There is
good reason for the suspicion that the
accident was the result of a deliberate
attempt to wreck the train. Thirty min
utes before the passenger train passed
York an excursion train passed safely
over the swith, and after the accident it
was found that the switch lock had been
broken open with a heavy oakeA club.

A swindling Land Scheme.

GARDEN CITY Kan, July 27.-@A COM
bination of land spectators recently
bought large amounts of very poor land
in the vicinity of Dodge City, Kan, and
it transpires that they have presented to
President Cleveland immense petitions
purporting to be signed by settlers ask
ing that the land offices of the district
be removed to that place, expecting
thereby to get up boom that will help
them to unload at a big profit. If re-
ports are true they have more than
twice as many names on the petition as
there are legal voters in the entire dis
trict. 1t is claimed that personal
friend of the president is engineering
the scheme, presuming upon his per-
sonal acquaintance and influence to pull
itthrough. The change, if made, would
put the land Office at one side of the dis
trict, where the land is all proved up,
would cause settlers to travel fifty miles
farther to transact business and cost
them in the aggregate thousands of
dollars of needless expense.

THE b. & O.. TELEGRAPH.
The Facts Regarding the Attempt
to Purchase 1t.


to Purchase 1t.
New YORK, July 27.-The scheme for
the transfer of the Baltimore & Ohio
Telegraph company to the management
of an organization of its employees has
been committed to paper, according to
J. B. Taltavall, of the Electric Age. and
the outcome of the project now depends
upon Mr.. Garrett. Mr.. Taltaval said
yesterday:
II is a mistake to speak of the plan as one
for the purchase of the telegraph property by
the companys operators. The facts are that
a syndicate of business men have. through a
lawyer in this city. made TO a few leading
men among the operators Il proposition by
which the syndicate is to raise $500. 600 as Il
cash payment on the $1,000, 900, which is
the price at which Mr.. Garrett will sell the
property. The property IS then 10 be turned
over to a cooperative or similar association
of the employees who VIII guarantee per
cent to the syndicate on its S500.O00, and
to Mr. Garrett on the $4,000. 600 bal
ance, and Will devote any surplus TO
the paving off of the purchase
Drlce The only requirement that the svndi-
cate makes is that the telegraph company
shall always be maintained as an iEdepend-
ent line, and shall enter into no combination
or pooling arrangement with other compan-
les | do not know whether the scheme is
likely to succeed or not. 1t all depends upon
Mr. Garnett. The papers containing the
proposition of the syndicate have been drawn
up. and have been, or soon viii be. presented
to him. His etforst TO effect combination
with the Western Union through JAY Gould
have failed. because Gould would make no
dicker unless it would include all the opposi-
ton to Western Union. He would not buy
the Baltimore & Ohio, only TO open the field
for Il new rival in the Postal. Macka yabso-
lutely refused to make a contract or arrange
ment with the Baltimore d Ohio which could
have made it possible for Il transfer of the
latter TO the Western Union to carry the
Postal with it. If Mr. Garrett sees how the
syndicate's scheme will get him help for his
negotiations with Gculd-then The scheme
will be carried through. If he does not see
this, the scheme will fail The object of the
syndicate is TO secure the maintenance Of a
permanent rival to the Western Union, moth
ing more. They expect nothing but that, be
